What does mark page do?
 
I see that on the history menu you can mark pages. I tried marking some pages and then navigating amongst marked pages but I think it is just taking me through the history and not paying attention to marks. I also notice that marking and unmarking pages does not stick. When I look at the history window I see no special markings on marked pages. Is this feature implemented in B1?

Did you notice that there are separate back and forward toolbar buttons (and menu commands, keyboard shortcuts) for moving between marked pages?

Marking pages is the same as using Snap Back in Safari, only as well as OmniWeb choosing which pages to mark automatically, you can add marked pages in the history yourself. If you customise your toolbar, you can add buttons for adding and navigating marked pages.

In B1 I don't think the unmark command is working. If I unmark, then go to some other page I can still navigate back in the marked pages and it will bring me back to the page I unmarked.

If you use the "Go to Previous/Next Mark" to leave a page--it marks the current page so that you can return to it quickly...

Could that be causing the behavior you are seeing?

If that is the problem--does anyone have a suggestion for a different way to handle it? Currently I'm thinking if you explicitly unmark a page, you have to explicitly mark it for it to be marked--does that seem reasonable?

Yeah that seems to be it. I can see the logic in this but its not intuitive.

I like the whole marked page idea. It makes browsing, say, ebay, a lot easier. Is there a keyboard shortcut to mark a page though? Doing it with the mouse seems a little slow.
